There will be a by-election to replace a vacant council seat in the Municipality of Rhineland. After serving in the post since 2006, Hank Enns resigned from his Ward 4 position last week.
    
Reeve Don Wiebe said municipal general elections are still over a year away and that's too long to leave the seat empty.

"That's a bit too long in terms of the Municipal Act to run without representation there."

A date for the by-election has not yet been set.
